The $20 million lawsuit filed by Laura Helm, against the popular R&B singer, Usher, has been dismissed after he purportedly reached a settlement with his accuser.

According to TMZ, court documents revealed that Helm, who sued the singer, filed to dismiss her suit earlier this week because she and Usher have “reached an amicable resolution.”

The case dismissal was said to have been filed with prejudice, meaning it can’t be refiled.

Recall that Helm in 2017 sued Usher, claiming he had exposed her to the herpes virus when they had unprotected sex.

She initially sued for $10 million, then increased it to $20 million for emotional harm and punitive damages.
